Republicans in Wisconsin have second thoughts about choosing Donald Trump as the party's next presidential nominee.
A recent Marquette University Law School Poll in Wisconsin found Trump was losing to Gov. Ron DeSantis (R-FL) by 16 points in a head-to-head matchup.
Wisconsin Republicans explained to Fox News why they had lost faith in Trump's ability to win.
"Trump, of course, did a great job as president, but DeSantis is very, very impressive," Wisconsin state Sen. Duey Stroebel (R-WI) said. "And I think more and more people really are doubting Trump's ability to win a general election, and I think these results kind of prove it."
"I think it's extremely important that we pick someone who can win," he added. "And, you know, as much as Trump did a great job as president, there is a certain segment of this population that there's just no way in hell they're going to vote for Donald Trump. And I think without some of those people, we can't win a general election with Donald Trump as our is our choice."
Republican Party of Sawyer County Chairman John Righeimer agreed in a statement to Fox News.
"We just don't think he can win the general," Righeimer remarked. "I think the Democrats want to run against Trump. I think they know they can beat Trump. Joe Biden stayed in the basement and beat Trump, basically just because of the dislike for Trump."
